    Broken, Worn Out, Old Clay Pots

    Contributed by Paul Dietz on Jun 19, 2008

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more

    Reflections

    A reflection is to give back an image or likeness. When ‘one’ turns to the Lord the veil that kept the light of God from shinning (as with Moses) is uncovered or taken away and now every believer has the very light sent from God!

    Reflection Text: II Corinthians 3: 7-11,16-18 But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory ...read more

    This sermon explores the concept of treasure in earthen vessels, within the concept of preaching the gospel

    This message is about vessels! I am sure you must have guessed from the title. Our main bible text is from 2 Corinthians 4: 7-9: But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are ...read more

    Isaiah says that we are the clay and that God is the potter. God spins us on His potter’s wheel turning us into jars of clay for His purpose.

    -Maybe you remember the song by the group Dead or Alive in the 1980s entitled “You spin me right round” -The chorus is what most people remember -It goes, “You spin me right round baby right round like a record baby, right round, round, round.” -When Andrew was younger and he would spin around in ...read more

     | 9,509 views

    However, regardless of how bright the light of the Gospel is there are those who are blind to the truth. To them the gospel is hidden. How does such brilliant light become so veiled or hidden that men see not the Light?

    THE HIDDEN GOSPEL 2 CORINTHIANS 4:1-7 Introduction: Paul writing to the Corinthian church speaks of the great and awesome privilege of having been given the ministry of carrying the Gospel to the lost. This ministry of bringing light to darkness was and is a work of God’s Power through His Spirit. ...read more

    When it comes to prayer, a broken mirror limits our view of, and experience of Christ – and keeps us from becoming like him – which has tragic and far-reaching consequences.

    Room With A View: Broken But Blessed Today, we continue our series . . . Room With A View, Perspectives on Prayer. Last week we talked about the distractions that can keep us from getting into the room. They keep us from experiencing the very presence of God. Our theme passage comes from a ...read more
